Answer:
48 in
Step-by-step explanation:
The length of the rug is 6 feet. We know this must account for 2 sides of the rug, so let's multiply 6 by 2.
6 × 2 = 12
Now subtract 12 from 20.
20 - 12 = 8
Now divide 8 by 2 to find the measurement of the remaining two sides.
8 ÷ 2 = 4.
The width of the rug is 4 feet. The question wants to find the width in inches, however. So multiply 4 by 12 because there are 12 inches in each foot.
4 × 12 = 48
The width of the rug is 48 inches.
Answer:
f $270= the remaining 24% then you want to do 270/24=11.25 Then you want to multiply that by 76 and you will get $855
So $270+$855=24%+76% So his monthly salary was $1,125
If you are still confused do it in reverse! 1,125/100=11.25
11.25•24=270 & 11.25•76=855
270+855=1,125

the guy below copied me
<span>Dawn was at 6 am.
Variables
a = distance from a to passing point
b = distance from b to passing point
c = speed of hiker 1
d = speed of hiker 2
x = number of hours prior to noon when dawn is
The first hiker travels for x hours to cover distance a, and the 2nd hiker then takes 9 hours to cover that same distance. This can be expressed as
a = cx = 9d
cx = 9d
x = 9d/c
The second hiker travels for x hours to cover distance b, and the 1st hiker then takes 4 hours to cover than same distance. Expressed as
b = dx = 4c
dx = 4c
x = 4c/d
We now have two expressions for x, set them equal to each other.
9d/c = 4c/d
Multiply both sides by d
9d^2/c = 4c
Divide both sides by c
9d^2/c^2 = 4
Interesting... Both sides are exact squares. Take the square root of both sides
3d/c = 2
d/c = 2/3
We now know the ratio of the speeds of the two hikers. Let's see what X is now.
x = 9d/c = 9*2/3 = 18/3 = 6
x = 4c/d = 4*3/2 = 12/2 = 6
Both expressions for x, claim x to be 6 hours. And 6 hours prior to noon is 6am.
We don't know the actual speeds of the two hikers, nor how far they actually walked. But we do know their relative speeds. And that's enough to figure out when dawn was.</span>
